[camtex78]

Hello Ladies just a lil about me...
Im 34...I have 5 kiddos already after my last child 8 yrs ago i decided to have a TL...So now I've been with my hubby for 4 yrs now and we decided something was missing so I had a tubal reversal done 2-29-12...since Hubby has no kids...We figured it wouldn't happen so soon but it did and he is so on ...And me of course
I've had 3 scans already just to see how the is doing and everything is ok...I go back today for another U/S
Yesterday had and headache all day and feeling queasy like having a sour stomachand everything i eat has a funny taste to it

SQUEEE I found the heartbeat again! 2 days in a row. This is so exciting!! I listened for about a minute, and it ranged from 163-176 BPM. That sounds about normal for 9 weeks, right? With my other kids, I didnt get a doppler until 13 weeks, so finding it this early is new for me

Hi ladies, I've been worrying today as I feel less pregnant. I think it's all irrational. I'll be glad (hopefully) after next Tue when I'm hoping my midwife might try to listen for a heartbeat I know it sounds stupid but until now there's no real evidence that I'm pregnant, aside from the home tests, I just can't wait for it to (hopefully) be confirmed by someone medically trained!

Welcome to all the new ladies & Congrats to all those who have seen their little beans through scans! Mine's 22nd August, 1st scan at 12 weeks, can't come soon enough xxx

hi ladies and welcome to the new mums 2b...

well isaw doc 2day and though it was brief it went well, he went through the basics , blood pressure, weight, external examination. he put a note on my records for the midwife to contact me early because of previous MC and i got home from work tonight to a call from my midwife, expected to wait a week or 2..now my first appointment is 2moro!!!!!!
i had no support last time so have been frantically reading my pack i was given with all the screening info and jotting down questions. really looking forward to it but dont know exactly wat to expect..feeling good

Hey everyone. Sorry I've been MIA for awhile. I was feeling really ill this last three weeks with it only getting worse and worse. I was dealing with severe headaches, horrible vomiting (not being able to keep down water ), body ache, chills, etc... I ended up going into the emergency room, and they administered an IV with two IV bag fluid. All my levels came back fine except the fact I was really dehyrated. I was currently on the regular Zofran that you swollow, but the dr said the Zofran that is a rapid dissolve tends to work faster for some people, and more effective. So I got that now to take and than also a suppository that helps but I was told by a few people that it makes you VERY tired so only take it at bedtime. (This is especially helpful if you are like me...and feel so ill at night you can't sleep). They both work wonders!!! The only thing is, I'm still having my bad headaches and the suppository Phenegren makes me sooo sleep I could sleep until noon and now its 4:30 and I'm just starting to feel "awake", It's not a fun experience, but I feel better knowing that I can EAT without puking it back up right away! And that I have an appetite back! I plan on using the medicines until my 2nd trimester and than i'll go off of it and see how it goes.

This is making me so tempted to rent a doppler. I've been going back and forth about it ever since my BFP. I rented one with my son but I didn't get it until 14 weeks so I knew by that time I'd hear it. I'm 8 weeks tomorrow so I know it might still be a little early.

It would just be so awesome hearing it because I know it would take all the stress and worry away. But on the flip side if I can't hear something I know I'll obsess about that until my mw appointment on the 14th.

Hi ladies! Welcome Camtex!

Sorry you're feeling so terrible SLC, I hope the new medicine helps!

Had my first appt/scan today and everything is looking perfect! Measuring at exactly 8 weeks and saw the perfect little heartbeat

 

[camtex78]

Thank You Ladies for the Welcomes...Here's a pic of my lil beaner...Just not sure on what date to go by either LMP or Ovulation???? Since I ovulated earlier Not too much of a difference 2 or 3 days...Just confusing...https://i305.photobucket.com/albums/nn228/LaCoYoTa_2008/6weeks2days.jpg

 

[AmyB1978]

Camtex, nice picture of your little bean! It looks like it decided to implant right in the middle!

I know exactly how you feel! My symptoms have even started to lessen up (though my boobs are still sore which keeps me happy in a weird kind of way...)
I'm about 3 days behind you and at my first scan (5 weeks roughly) they couldnt see anything much.
I have a scan booked for Tuesday as well and my first appointment with my new doctor (last one was a bit odd). Exciting times!!
What date are you due?

 

[Libbysmum]

That is so cute...and a very clear image...I hope the next u/s I get is clear unlike the first one! Been recovering from that awful virus and feeling about 80 percent...still trying to shake off the sore throat. Hope none of this virus will cause problems with the little berry. Does anyone know if there have been evidence of illness/viruses affecting the foetus?

 

[ohmygoodness]

Aww thanks ladies... i will ask my OB about it

Yeay I'm a SweetPea today

bkay - oh no!that's terrible,do you know which painkillers you can take that are safe for the baby? hope it gets better hun

[MummyWant2be]

can relate - haven't really been feeling pregnant and i tend to worry that something is wrong...cause i don't have any MS i still eat fine and no vomitting...except last week i had the flu...besides all is the same - my boobs don't hurt anymore.

this is a weird question ladies....when I was preggers in feb before I had my mc I had to use the bathroom like every hour... i was about 5 weeks... this time around I don't have the frequency...is this normal? Are you girls running to the bathroom often? I know thats a crazy question...most of the guides that tell you what to expect mention going to the bathroom frequently and im not going to pee that often....is it just me? I hope nothings wrong

Yes...to answer your question...I pee before I go out...but no sooner do I sit in the car to drive somewhere I need to pee again... It has something to do with the fluid and pressure on your bladder and other organs. As well as that you have extra secretions (those dang hormones) that make you feel a little damp down there. Light exercises and kegals *spelling?* apparently do help. If you feel like it try some physiotherapists that work with pregnant women...they sometimes hold group classes for women. Not sure if they are available in your area but do a google search and you never know!

Hi Ladies

I would really appreciate your thoughts as something has been bugging me since my scan last friday.

I am pretty sure of my dates because for once my cycle was "normal". If I am out I am pretty sure it can only be by a day or two.

I got a positive OPK on CD13 (24/06) and my first BFP at 10DPO (04/07). It was a digi and said 1-2 weeks. A week later I did another, 2-3 (10/07). And again a week after that, 3+ (17/07).

So when I went for my scan I calculated I was 6+4.

But she said our bean was measuring 5+6. That's 5 days out. Feels like a lot to me. There is no way I could have got a BFP at 5DPO or after late implantation on that date?

So I am now worried that baby is not developing properly. Or do they go in fits and starts and has maybe caught up? Don't know what to think. I guess I will find out about the next scan but don't have a date yet.

Has anyone else had this?
